Undoubtedly, the cities of Overseas Europe exhibit three main common features of urbanization: increasing population concentration in large cities, urban sprawl and rapid urban population growth.
But, recently there has been a tendency towards a slowdown in the level of urbanization. This is more likely due to suburbanization. When people prefer to live in the suburbs and work in large cities.
Additional:
On the sea coasts there are agglomerations such as Rome and Barcelona; at the mouths of rivers - London; far from the seas, but on navigable rivers - Kyiv, Paris, etc.; far from the sea - Berlin, Milan, Madrid, etc.

| Number, type of population reproduction, demographic policy | China is the most populous country in the world. As of 2020, China's population is 1.38 billion people. Has the second type of population reproduction. |
| Sex and age structure of the population. Number of working population. | The largest share in the gender and age pyramid is occupied by men. In China, a man has a high status. Age structure: 0 – 14 years: 17.08%; 15-24: 13.82%; 25-54: 47.95%; 55-64:11.14%; 65 and older: 10.01% |
| National (ethnic composition of the population) | China is considered a multinational country. In total, there are more than 50 types of nationalities in the country. The largest part of the population are Han Chinese. They live mainly in the eastern part of China. |
| Social class composition of the population | When studying the social structure of the population of China, it is necessary to take into account that today, the country's society is in a transitional stage. The class composition of the population underwent changes as economic reforms were carried out. The main classes of the population of the Middle Kingdom are: officials, workers, large businessmen, hired workers, representatives of small and medium-sized businesses, peasants, and intelligentsia. |
| Main features of population distribution. The influence of migration on population distribution. | Throughout the country, the population is distributed extremely unevenly, since the entire bulk of the population (about 90%) is located on only 1/3 of the territory. |
| Levels, rates and forms of urbanization, main cities and urban agglomerations. | China is a medium-urbanized country. Despite the fact that the country contains the largest agglomerations in the world, the LU is slightly more than 50%. But there is a high rate of urban population growth. Large agglomerations of the country and the world: Shanghai with a population of more than 23 million and Beijing with about 20 million people. |
| Rural settlement | There has been a sharp decline in the rural population |
| General conclusion, prospects for population growth and labor supply. | Today, the demographic situation in China is changing. It is known that its main principle of “one family, one child” was abolished. This is due to the fact that recently there has been a tendency towards an aging population and, consequently, a decrease in labor resources. Also in China there is a predominance of men. This is explained by the higher status of men than women. |
